Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
15+c=2c−5
15+c=2c+−5
c+15=2c−5
Step 2: Subtract 2c from both sides.
c+15−2c=2c−5−2c
−c+15=−5
Step 3: Subtract 15 from both sides.
−c+15−15=−5−15
−c=−20
Step 4: Divide both sides by -1.
-c/-1 = -20/-1

c=20

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation. 15+c=2c−5 15+c=2c+−5 c+15=2c−5 Step 2: Subtract 2c from both sides. c+15−2c=2c−5−2c −c+15=−5 Step 3: Subtract 15 from both sides. −c+15−15=−5−15 −c=−20 Step 4: Divide both sides by -1. -c/-1 = -20/-1 c=20

Thank you this really helps!
